Just added the DR-Z to my insurance, anyone want to hazard a guess how much it added to my premium?
Update: LooseonExit got it, $23 increase... Annually.

last time I insured A bike in that class it was about $125/yr... if you have a multiple vehicle discount it might be under $100....

I’m guessing about $12/month. :)

15.65 a year?
![]() 03/30/2016 at 16:06 |
|
Ok, now we’re getting into the right range! Slightly more, but not much

???!!! how many vehicles do you have on your policy, and who’s your company? $19.95???
![]() 03/30/2016 at 16:08 |
|
Damn! $23? Or $24 for $2/month increase...
![]() 03/30/2016 at 16:08 |
|
It’s Progressive, just three bikes with them, no other policies. And you’ve gone too low now :)
![]() 03/30/2016 at 16:10 |
|
Yep, $23. I actually laughed a little bit when they told me the increase.
![]() 03/30/2016 at 16:13 |
|
yeah, Progressive seems to be pretty reasonable about bike policies, I have my BMW on them... but I only have one bike.... they charge me what, $287 or something like that a year...
so, just stop me when i get there...
19.96...
19.97...
19.98....
19.99
20.00.
20.01.......

Well you said it was less than $25/year and that’s only $2.08.month... WE DEMAND THE TRUTH.
![]() 03/30/2016 at 16:15 |
|
I assumed that was a guess at an annual increase, after all the last bike I added only increased my premium by $5 per year!
Answer was $23 :)
![]() 03/30/2016 at 16:16 |

You’ll be a while, LooseonExit guessed it at $23.
Grand total for my three bikes is about $170

Woot!
Jeez. They may as well have not even raised it. All the time and paperwork will cause them to be at a loss, haha.

And I’ll save that much by commuting with it for a single week over the E39...
That said, when I added my 50cc, the increase was $5, I honestly felt bad because just the phone call probably cost them more than that.
![]() 03/30/2016 at 16:21 |

saw that.
BMW=Bring More Wallet... haha...
*sigh*
It’s reliable as hell and tough as nails, but the parts are ridiculously expensive. I also have a $50 comprehensive deductible. I don’t know if Hagerty does bikes, but the thing’s old enough and getting more difficult to get parts for... :/

$23... that’s so sweet. Nice bike too. Always looks funny to me seeing a Suzuki dressed up in Yamaha blue though.
![]() 03/30/2016 at 16:27 |
|
I’m not sure I agree...
![]() 03/30/2016 at 16:29 |
|
Oh yeah, I go through the same on my E39, really nice to see they can keep the same brand identity across the whole company :)
Strong and reliable, but as soon as that first part goes, there’s a line of 10 more that are about to!

Do you want to hear an even funnier insurance cost story?
I added my old truck to my policy.
you’ll never guess the cost so I’ll just tell you. -$120 bucks. Yes you read that right NEGATIVE $120 dollars per year.
You see when you add a second vehicle to your policy you receive a discount. My discount was $378 bucks and the cost of insurance for the truck was $258. So in reality my truck insurance is cheaper than free since it literally pays me $10/month to insure this truck.

Now that’s a trick I’d love to be able to pull with my bikes!

ANNUALLY!??!?!?
I hate you so much.

Pretty sure all they see is “400CC, tops out under 100"
But yeah, I jokingly asked the agent if I could pay it in installments :)
